Furby

Furby is an electronic robotic toy. It was first released in 1998 by Tiger Electronics, where its first model type, known as "1998 Furby" or "Classic Furby" continued to be sold for four more years. In 2005, Hasbro owned the rights and released a different model of the toy, known as Emoto-Tronic Furby. They came with voice recognition. These continued to be sold for two more years. In 2012, Hasbro released another new Furby model, known as "2012 Furby," which soon went on to be minorly revamped into "Furby Boom" the following year. 2012 Furby and Furby Booms both came with their own mobile applications, and they could change personalities depending on the types of interactions a person would have with them. In 2016, Hasbro released a new Furby model called Furby Connect, which had a heavy focus on its new corresponding mobile application, Furby Connect World.
